by Omowale O. on Oh Bordello, you just fell short of living up to your name. Even during a burlesque show, I found you to be a bit too tame. Bordello is a club full of unrealized potential. It has a nice set up. It attracts a particular type of personality. Not quite a snob. Not quite a hipster. Not quite a rocker. Rather a strange cornucopia indeed depending on the night. This place is missing an umph, a real character. It is gorgeous with those black chandeliers and velvet textures and antiqued mirrors. I just wish it felt more... lived in. More warm for a different reason other than it lacks a/c.
by Vi Rakestrow on The first time I came was a sort of last-minute, late-night date. I think it was Monday, and we showed up at like midnight or something. There was a low key vibe and a relatively tame crowd. The view was, of course, spectacular, and because the place was relatively empty we were able to actually sit and talk. It was mellow and pretty romantic. Naturally, the drinks were expensive as hell, but whatever. I went again in October, when my boyfriend and I were staying at the Sir Francis Drake. We went on Wednesday night around 11. The place was jam packed, and the crowd was pffbbt. A bunch of ho-types in way-too-short dresses and knee-high boots with about ten pounds of makeup on. Also an amusing group of 40 or 50somethings, that featured a blonde woman dipping over and rubbing her ass all over the crotch of her male companion, while clutching her Bud Light for dear life. I guess I shouldn't be too hard on this place -- for a club of its kind, it's not that bad. I've just never been into this scene. After we had stayed at the hotel for 9 days, running into obnoxiously drunk Starlight patrons outside the lobby every night got a little old too. The most memorable was a mid-twenties blonde woman in a red dress so tight that it allowed one to see not only the outline of the bow on her underwear, but also her beer gut and navel piercing. She stood swaying in front of the hotel, smoking a cigarette, and telling this older man in a pin-striped suit how she had heard a lot of good things about Europe. As he lit his cigar, she told him, "I have a friend from Spain -- but she's WHITE-- who said..." I didn't stay to hear what she said. I wonder if middle aged men regularly come here to pick up hammered floozies? Sorry, Harry Denton. I'll take the alcoholics at Ace's any day. But I'd come back for the drag show; it sounds awesome!
by Sarah G. on I am addicted to mojitos. Seriously...if there was a support group for mojitos addicts I should probably sign up. So when I found out there was a place that had 24 different kind of mojitos at a restaurant within walking distance to me I KNEW I had to go. I ordered a pomegranate mojito. It was ok...sadly...it really did not feed my mojito craving. Onto the food. We had the guacamole which was made at your table. Once again...average.. For $10 guac it really should be f-ing awesome...and this was just kind of bland and boring. I will say the chicken taquitos we ordered were very tasty. For our dinner we shared some steak fajitas. Which were once again just average. I was very sad. This mojito mecca did just not live up to my expectations. I guess I am still searching for my mojito "go to" place in NYC. Any suggestions? Let me know!
